Reed, at Olivers Springs, Tenn., under date of June Ski, which we will find space for next week. Iu a private note Mr. R. says that Mrs. K. is well and that his health is some what improved. Ernst & Schwarz's advertisement in today's JouHNAii speaks for itself. They are having a very large trade in farm machinery, and those who are in need of Minneapolis self-binders, mowers, or anything else, will do well and make money by culling on them before pur chasing. - Nich Blasset was in town Monday getting lumber for the Duncan, Platte river bridge, which he expects to com plete )efore harvest.

Mr. Rice, with his family, will start Friday next on a trip for rest and recuperation, to be ab sent for four or more Sabbaths. It is hoped that Mrs. Rice, who has been sick for the last two months, may fully recover by the change. Monday morning about 2 o'clock burglars apeared at John Stauffer's residence. John was fast asleep, and Mrs. S. inquired what was wanted. They disappeared. It happened a little differ ent at one of Mr. Dietrich's houses. Three men appeared in front of Mr. Ignatz's lodging he sleeps with his door open. He cleared his throat and reached for his revolver, but the fellows disappeared. The editor of,, the Humphrey Inde pendent, in reply to a correspondent regarding the employment of an expert to look over the official records of Platte county, says: "We will say to our cor respondent, that we can see jio reason why tho county books should not be overhauled by an expert, and we think the county board will take some action in the matter, as it certainly is but doing justice to the wish of the people if they so do." Mr. Geo. Heitkemper, of Columbus, and Mrs. Joe Eimers, of Humphrey, were united by marriage Tuesday morn ing, in the Catholic church, Rev. Father Theodore officiating. An elegant din ner was served at the residence of Wm. Eimers, after which Mr. and Mrs. Heit kemper took the noon train for Colum bus, where they will immediately com mence housekeeping. Humphrey friends wish them much prosperity and happi ness. Humphrey Independent. Co lumbus friends join in congratulations. The coming Teachers' Institute for Platte county will be conducted by Prof. Geo. H. Knepper, principal of the Peoria, HI., High School, assisted by Mis9 H. Alma Parker of the Fremont Normal, and Mrs. Cook of Lincoln. Prof. Knepper has a high reputation, both as a teacher and normal instructor. He has had experience in all grades of school work, having passed from the district school by successive promotion to his present position. He is a disciple of Col. Parker of the Cook county nor mal, and will bring with him some ad vanced ideas and principles, which, it is hoped, will be of great benefit to our teachers. The quarterly conference of the Northern Nebraska District of the Re organized Church of the Latter Day Saints was held at Fremont last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Elder G. W. Galley was the delegate from the Co lumbus Branch. Considerable business was transacted, all sections being well represented. The three services Sunday were all well attended more than could be seated being present, although the church was large. The Conference was in charge of Wm. M. RumelL Two days' meetings were appointed for Omaha and Valley, the former about the middle of August. A series of meetings have been held near Battle Creek which have been largely attended by people from all directions for fifteen miles; interest still increasing. August 8th, Columbus will be call ed upon to accommodate with board and lodging about five hundred fellow-citizens, delegates to the prohibition, con gressional convention for the Third dis trict. The local committee are inform ed that the hotels have not the facilities for boarding and lodging this number, and they propose calling upon our citi zens to ascertain who can board and lodge some of the delegates, how many, and at what rates. Those who are at all prepared to do so should make favorable response to the committee as, one year with another, it is a matter of considera ble importance to a city to have it known that she always takes care of a large gathering of people who have se lected it as a place of meetings. And this is true, whatever may be the char acter of the particular convention, whether of your particular religious or political or social or business associa tions or not. So far as the general re- Sute of the city is concerned, all should e treated alike. A Little Outing. A trip last week, via Platte Center, Humphrey and Leigh to the southern portion of Stanton county convinces us more than ever that Nebraska lands are desirable as an investment of spare money. Crops all along the route we took are looking splendidly, and with a fair season from this out, the yield will lie abundant. Platte Center, Humphrey, Croston and Leigh are all nourishing, being surrounded by very fine agricul tural regions. For a place only two years old Leigh is rather an exceptional town. They have a farmers' union that has really done some good work for the town as well as for the country, the sit uation as to dealers in certain lines hav ing leen somewhat peculiar; fence posts, formerly selling at 15 to 20 cents, have lwen purchased through the union for S to 10; lumber formerly costing 800 a thousand is now $21.50. and farmers get the full value of their products ex cepting a small sum paid the union for handling. We were informed that the straw that broke the back of the camel was the fact that at a certain time last winter when corn was selling readily at 30 cents in Columbus, the highest that could be got at Leigh was 22 cents. The Northwestern railroad people were con vinced that the elevator men whom they had favored, were allowing products to be hauled by other roads, and since that time their policy changed. The union has had no trouble on rates, no trouble to get cars when needed, and has sold without an effort all product offered. It is said that the union has increased by fifty per cent, the business of every man in the town, and has certainly demon strated that the railroad company can make an alliance with tillers of the soil as well as with elevator companies. In one of her citizens, Mr. Devine, Leigh claims the smartest man in Col fax county. He has made the protect ive tariff a thorough study, and republi can campaigners would do well to call on him for service during the campaign, if by so doing they could be so fortunate as to secure him. While at Leigh we were indebted for courtesies to G. W. Kibler, Mr. Staab and Mr. Preiss. At Humphrey we met a number of old acquaintances, Messrs. Clark, Robison, Hampton, Fuchs, Sibley, Ripp, Postle, Hart, Condon and others, and took note of the fact that since our last visit, the burg has so grown that we would not have recognized it, Tho train did not pass Platte Center so swiftly but that we noticed a good, vigorous growth in that lively burg. Platte county so far as we can Bee, is in a prosperous candition this summer of 1888. W. C. T. U. A prize medal elocutionary contest will be held in the Presbyterian church Friday evening, July 6th, under the direction of tho W. C. T. U. Mr. Dem orest of New York, who is a successful journalist and has amassed quite a for tune, proposes to give it away in edu cating the young. A class of young persons under twenty-one years of age, to consist of not less than six persons, nor more than ten, will recite before an audience. Three judges are selected (Revs. Griswold, Powers and Snyder), who after conference will award the prizo to the person who has, all things considered, acquitted himself most cred itably. After eight contests have been held and oight silver medals won, the successful parties may recite new pieces, and contest for a gold medal; and eight personB holding gold medals may con test for a grand gold medal. Eight persons holding grand gold medals may contest for a diamond medal. These contests are said to have a wonderfully improving influence upon those who compete, and enthusiasm runs high. Be sure to go and hear the contest. Sec'y. Colambas Street Cant. Work has been pushed at a rapid rate the past week, and the probability is that when this number of the Journal reaches you, our line will be in full op eration. The cars, two in number, arrived Mon day morning, and are very handsome specimens from the manufactory of Robinson & Moan, Waterloo, Iowa. They will seat eighteen persons, and on a pinch accommodate twenty-five. They have all the modern appliances and con veniences of the street-car line, down to the legends " No smoking," and "Place your fare in the box," etc. The Street car company certainly de serve well of the public here for the solid, substantial manner in which they are complying with their part of their engagement with the city, and have well earned the right to the most remunera tive patronage the public can bestow. Weather Report. Review of the weather near Genoa for the month of June, 1888. Mean temperature of the month 89.83 Mean do same month laat year 72.07 HighoHt temperature on the 17th 92 Lowest do on the 6th 45 Ordinarily clear days 19 Very clondydaya 10 Hitch winds days 6 Number of days on which ruin fell 7 Inches of rain fall 4.49 Do for same month last year 5.79 Thunderstorms 6, 11, 12, 14, 19 and 26. Slight hail on 6th and 11th. The observer would call attention to the fact that June of last year was thought too dry and this year too wet and yet there was 1J more inches of rain fell last year than this an excess of nearly four thousand gallons per acre, showing that in such matters, a regular record is the only dependant for a cor rect judgment, but we must also remem ber that the mean temperature this year is two degrees lower than last. Card of Thanks. To our friends: It is with the most profound sense of gratitude that myself and family recognize the many acts of kindness shown us by our friends dur the last sickness of my husband and father of my children, John W. Early; especially do I desire, sincerely and from the depths of my heart to thank you, each and every one of you, for the marked respect paid his memory in ad ministering the last sad rites which closed the drama of his life, and as well for the kind words of sympathy and condolence given us in our great be reavement. That you may have your reward in the bestowal of God's choicest blessing upon you, shall be the prayer of the widow and fatherless. Mbs. Mast A. Eably and Family. Columbus, Neb June 80, '88.

Land is fertile, he says, plenty of good wood and water, and there are thousands upon thousands of acres of land subject to homestead and pre-emption under the U. S. government laws. He tells us that he used to believe the stories about kill ing negroes to keep them from voting, threatening to kill them to prevent their voting, counting out their votes, etc., were campaign yarns gotten up for effect, but he now knows different. They have no show there, politically. The Annual County Teachers Inntitute Will be held this year at the High School building, beginning on the 13th day of August, and continuing two weeks.

Prospects are fair for a full crop of corn on the upland; that on the bottom land also looks well excepting in the buffalo wallows, where it was drowned out, which will have its effect on the average. Oats nover looked better. Rust has made its appearance in 6ome pieces of wheat, wlule most fields are looking well with no signs of chinch bugs as yet, in this immediate vicinity. Clover and timothy is not a full crop, but looks well considering the scorching it got last summer.
